I had my kidney removed in June . I don't have pain as such. However, does anyone else just have a continual bloated belly! I look like I'm 2/3 months pregnant! Yes my appetite has increased over the past 4 weeks, but still I'd have thought the bloat would have gone by now.. anyone else?
Hi Jd19801 and a very warm welcome to the online community which I hope you'll find is both an informative and supportive place to be.
I'm not a member of this forum but noticed that your post hadn't had any replies yet. Responding to you will 'bump' it back to the top of the discussion list again.
Have you spoken to your CNS about your bloated belly as he/she maybe able to help?
I hope this resolves soon.
I have spoken to them. They say the bloat can take a while to go due to the trauma inside the body. However, I've decided to try and cut out all carbs. I've been eating more so might just be that, plus not really going anywhere.
Hopefully cutting some foods out might help too!!! My waist was the smallest part of my body, now it's bloated I feel quite ugly! I shouldn't say that as I've had a tumour removed but you can't help how you feel! I am so grateful to be alive!!!
my husband and I have booked a trip to Milan to see my family in October. Hoping by then I feel better, plus starting work on Wednesday so I'll be moving more.
